Trust Sweet Iron Full Cheek Roller Bit 16mm 12.5

Trust Bit Sweet Iron Full Cheek Roller Snaffle 16mm 12.5

The mouthpiece has a thickness of 16 millimeters at its thickest point. It is therefore a medium-strong mouthpiece.

For comparison, the standard thickness for a normal warmblood is between 16mm and 18mm. For ponies, this value is usually between 10mm and 14mm. Very large warmbloods, cold-bloods and Shire Horses usually need a bit thicker than 18mm. A thickness of 12mm is usually suitable for a pony.

When choosing the bit thickness and size, pay attention to the anatomical features of the horse's mouth. You can use your fingers to test how much space there is between the tongue and palate.

The Trust Equestrian development team continuously works on innovative bits to further optimize the design and function of the bits. We would like to introduce you to the Trust Bit Sweet Iron Full Cheek Roller Snaffle 16mm 12.5 from the Trust Equestrian range today:

Bit thickness

This mouthpiece size is generally well suited for sporty thoroughbreds.

Side piece

Full cheek snaffles

The full cheek snaffle lies very quietly and stably in the mouth. It ensures reliable lateral limitation without the risk of pinching skin and lips due to the angled bars. This bit is suitable for horses that need clear lateral support and guidance when turning.

Mouthpiece

single-jointed

A single-jointed bit has a hinge point, which means less pressure is exerted on the tongue than with a double-jointed mouthpiece. A single-jointed mouthpiece primarily exerts pressure on the bars and sides of the tongue and can also affect the palate. The single-jointed mouthpiece is the most popular mouthpiece on the market.

Bit material

Sweet Iron

Trust's Sweet Iron bits are made of steel. The bits have been developed so that surface rust forms when in contact with air and moisture. This tastes sweet and stimulates saliva production. Horses therefore readily accept Sweet Iron bits.
